Ingredients
For the Ranch Mashed Potatoes
- 2 lb.
red potatoes
- 1/2
packet ranch seasoning mix
- 2/3 c.
sour cream
For the Filling
- 1 lb.
pulled pork
- 1
bottle barbecue sauce
- 1
can corn, juices drained
- 1 c.
shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1
bunch scallions, diced
Directions
- Step 1Preheat oven to 400°.
- Step 2Make the ranch mashed potatoes: Peel potatoes and cut into 1" pieces, then place pieces in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring water to boil and cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. Drain and place in a large bowl.
- Step 3Add ranch seasoning and sour cream and mash potatoes until the mixture is thoroughly combined and most of the lumps are gone. Set aside.
- Step 4Make the rest of the dish: Toss pulled pork with barbecue sauce (as much or as little as you'd like to use). Add it to a large casserole dish, smoothing it to create one even layer. Top with corn, then add a layer of mashed potatoes. Cover with shredded cheese and scallions.
